2. Al Gore

I wish he would stop with the teasing and just say he's not running for president.

3. why?

the media whores deserve to be the last group to know, especially after what they did to him in 2000

5. Al Gore

These pundits make me want to puke they all think Gore is running thats why he should just say NO I AM NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.

4. see my other post

I dont think he is running. I think its a bunch of political games with everyone speculating if he will run and he would rather people spend their time talking about Global Warming.

6. he's not running

it breaks my heart to say this, but that is my opinion after watching the segment. He seems to be at peace with not running. I also read he has asked donors to give to other dem contenders.

I love Gore, and he is the right guy for our times. Shame on the MSM; I hate those bastards more than ever. Because of their f*cking incessant ridicule, they turned him into a buffoon in 2000. I don't think any better of them now; they would likely do the same thing. Assholes.

7. he is not running because of the MSM ridiculing him

He is not running because he has devoted the rest of his life to Global Warming.

8. I know that comabting Global Warming is his mission.

Gore admitted in the segment the great power a president wields to effect change and influence envirnmental policy. I believe he would like to be president. As far as running, the brutality of the MSM must play into his decision. Gore is being taken seriously now, and people are listening to him. He knows a national campaign could jeopardize that. I don't blame him if he really feels he can accomplish greater things from where he is now. But I hope he changes his mind. I think the public is way more receptive to his message now, especially after 8 years of Dumbass.
